The auction listing (silent auction at the Nashville Pipe Show) stated that it was a Dunhill blend and 10 years old, however I agree with you that it may be much older. It was donated to the auction by Uptown Smoke Shop in Nashville. I contacted them via email after the show trying to get information on the blend and the fellow who responded said that it was probably a light burley blend with a floral aroma. It was moist when I got it, even though the bag had been opened. I tried to dry some out by sitting it out on a plate for several days, but it still held most of it's moisture. It smoked hot to me.
    Hi Tab,

    I'm concerned that the tobacco was open and still moist unless unless, and I think that this is a strong possibility, it was opened and sampled and deemed ready to donate .

    I'd be surprised if it's actually less than 15 years old. It is possible that it's based on or a Dunhill blend but making one, as per my own example in their store, is as easy as making it. Does it have Perique?

    I didn't detect Perique myself.
